I am no better than any one in fact in some way I may have been worse then most. I am a Fundamental Christian. I believe that the word of God as written in the orginal languages is true. I have look at many other religions before becoming saved. I once attacked Christians for the thing they believed. I thought you need to lose your mind to believe the bible, But after trying to discredit I came to believe it was true. Jesus was the son of God. I look at Paul and Peter in my study to find some thing I could use to discredit the bible. I look at other non Christian writings Hermetities, and Josephis. I look at the skeptic view piont and those thing they say are wrong. I look to science and evolution only find more questions. The Big Bang don't answer any thing and I did not come from a fish. I saw a big hole in the fossil record where the missing link should be by the millions. I know Jesus is alive. Rome had a reward for his body in the 1st century and never fond it.

I know people think I am closed minded I am not closed minded I have look at Jack Astooks arguements and found them to be in error. I have looked at Steven Hawkings work in trying to explain where the universe came from and found a big hole in it. He could never explain where the mater came from in the first place.

I am trying to reach out to every one in love. As in the greek word agape. I know many may not understand. I know there are many who will make fun of me. It's ok. Laugh make jokes. I understand and forgive. To those who share my love thank you. You may not share my believes, but we are of one race the human race. We live on one planet. God bless and my you have peace and joy in your heart.

I am not offended by love, especially if it's Godly love.

I wouldn't be offended, but that doesn't mean I believe you. You don't say how you "came to believe" that the bible was true. I see that you looked at some non-christians, and were able to discredit them, and you looked at science, and were able to find flaws. Does that make the bible true? This is called the "Not this, not that" method of discovering the truth. The premise is that if we simply eliminate through logic and reason all other possibilities, we will be left with the truth. The danger of this method is that we rarely go beyond the scope of our own knowledge when considering "all" of the possibilities. You may have eliminated some of the possibilities, but have you eliminated them all? Perhaps science and atheism can be eliminated as the truth. Are there other possible sources of truth?

If you told me, perhaps I would be, since I'm kind of a stand-offish sort of person. If you were a guy, I'd probably slap you around some for being cheeky, but I'm not the slapping kind of woman.
I don't care what your excuse is. If you are truly walking in Christ as one, you would understand what I understand. You are still only awakening, and so you are still confused by the dream you were having.
New religious beliefs are like a new realm to explore. Before you is a path, and that path takes you into dangerous places. It is narrow and it is sometimes dreadful. But be assured, that beside you is the Lord of the Universe, and in that, I will only say: "Ask Him"
And He WILL answer. You might not always like the answer.

Will I get a hug too? You conversion is a good thing, however... you might want to take the next step. Fundies are too literal and if you are an intelligent person, which it seems that you are, you will not be happy there for long... move on up to the rational people... Anglican, or RC, or Orthodox.

So you abandoned thinking to put your trust in some preacher. Do you think that you deserve respect for this. No, of course not, but you don't care, because you are now a member of one of the dozen or so people who actually will go to heaven.

well you could TELL me you loved me, even if you really didn't. You can't just make up love for a stranger. Love is a biological reaction caused by pheromones.
Anyway, if you met me IRL, I believe you could eventually have a crush on me or something, but anyway it would be a love wasted. I'm happily engaged, thank you.

so are you saying that you love all because we are all children of God? I don't think that, saying that would be offensive to me because I believe that we should remember where we all came from. If you are saying that you love people just to say it then that would be a little weird.

You are Great, and Honest.
BTW, what were the other religion you had looked before. And if you don't mind how long and how deep.

Taking offense is a choice. Why should I choose to be offended by mere words?
While your confession is interesting, it wouldn't sway my choice either way.
